Diplomas, courses and degrees online: Getting a fast bachelors degree or masters onlie degree on lineIf you are looking into the possibility of getting an online degree, here are five things you should consider: 1) if you want the degree to stand up to scrutiny by future employers and others (and this isn't a priority for everyone, but if it is for you) be sure it is from a recognized online degree school, college, university or institute, that isn't only "accredited" but is also validated by state degree boards. 2) make sure you understand what will be required of you in your degree program. What are the expectations? How much time do classes usually require? What is the level of difficulty? Knowing this in advance greatly increases the chances you will succeed. 3) How flexible is the program? Most onlin degree programs are very flexible and can accomodate the student in many ways. You may be able to move foward at full speed, or take a few years. 4) What are the financial aid options for the online degree program? The government offers student loans for many but not all- and the school recruiters should be able to give you the straight scoop (make sure they aren't sugar coating it to get their commissions!). And 5) Will this online diploma or degree give me what I am looking for? Will it open the doors I am trying to open? One way to know this is to ask a current or future employer if they would recognize such a degree and would consider it an asset. Have these tips in mind as you do your homework and search several different programs, until you find the one that feels best to you. Funny University Application LetterDear sir or Mam, I would like to apply for a colege degre at your onlie degree program. I have real smarts, mostly self-learned though you wood not no it. I can read real advanced, and can also write Engish and other langauges. I’m a real lingist. My communicatoin skils are to die for- least my Ma said that on her death bed. Maybe I could be a nurse or emergency technician or minister or divinity expert like a chaplain. Or maybe all three! And I have been studyng up on a lot of majer subjcts. A distants correspondance coarse would help me get some educatoin and gradjuate with a deploma. I'm not so certian yet which degee I want to get, but I know it shouldn't be in mathmatics or enginering. I'm not so good with engines, or any technology like electrical lights and electronics and such. I can’t even see electrons- they make them so small these days! I’m good at accounting though. I’m always a counting my finances, which I keep mostly in my pocket for safe keeping. I could be an economist but maybe just for one person at a time. I was thinking about maybe crimnal justice, becuase I think justise is a good idea as long as it is fair. I’d be a real fine judge, in my estimation. Or a lawyer or even an attorney. I really like counseling too. But my therapy is almost over cuss of insurence running low. But my therpist says I'm good and ready to cross that line and move on to a greener pastor. Dunno why a pastor would be green, unless he ate my potato salad! Anyhoo, so if you'd consider me for one of your bachelor dgrees I'd be pleased as punch- not that I drink you understand. I mean I drink water, for sure. Maybe I should study biology or nutrition or agriculture. Yeah, maybe a bachelers dgree in farming, and then I could work my way up to being a master of something, then a docter- if you have docterate pograms that is. I mean, not like a health or medical degre- I mean one of those P hd diplomas you get from taking a bunch of tough courses for a year and wrting a phd theses or disertation or something. I do a lot of writing, though mostly in my head. Maybe I could be a great socail scientist or busines profesional. I could even maybe be like the head of the univercity program and then maybe even become a political science sientist politicain! YEAH I could be President! President of the whole country- not just part of it! Course, fist I guess I should enquire- do you guys have like a part time GED highschool diploma progrm? I mean, just to get all warmed up? P.S. Please reply quickly as I am 94 years young and I’m told by my social worker and parol officer I have some geriatric tendencies which I’m guessing is some kind of code for being a hit with the ladies. Or hit by them anyway. Much abliged, B.A. Johnston, Graduate of the University of Hard Knocks. © InnocententEnglish.com |
